The Advanced Graduate Certificate in Human Resource Management program was designed to provide HR practitioners with the necessary knowledge to make
informed decisions in management and policy. The program is offered in collaboration with the University's College of Business and articulates with its Master
of Business Administration (MBA) program. Eighteen of the 21
credits may also be used to fulfill requirements in either the Master of Science in Human Resource Management or Master of Arts in Liberal Studies program offered through the School of Professional Development. (Be advised that not all courses count for both programs. Students should compare the degree and certificate requirements prior to enrolling.)

NOTE: When a student is admitted or readmitted to an SPD degree or certificate program, students may petition SPD to have Stony Brook University graduate level courses that are older than five (5) years, and no older than 10 years, individually evaluated by the appropriate academic department/faculty to determine if the credits may be applied toward current SPD degree/certificate requirements. Grades in such courses must be "B" or better. (B- grades are ineligible for review.)
